Chapter 222: Chapter 221: Elder Sister’s Phone Call (7)

Shifting the topic so awkwardly, Chuxia could tell Ling Chuxia was hiding something from her. But Ji Xinxin also knew Ling Chuxia’s personality. She was no longer the straightforward girl from three years ago, who wore everything on her face. Over these three years, she had deliberately suppressed herself, swallowing any grievance or sadness. If she didn’t want to talk about something, pushing her would be useless.

Ji Xinxin pouted, lazily leaning back against the sofa and grabbing a cushion to hug in front of her. Thinking back to the blind date scene tonight, she frowned in irritation, "Don’t even mention it! It was bad luck!"

This response piqued Ling Chuxia’s interest slightly. With Ji Xinxin’s queenly presence, if she set her mind to spoil a blind date, it would undoubtedly be easy. But Ling Chuxia hadn’t expected to see such a... disastrous expression?

"What happened?" Ling Chuxia couldn’t help but ask softly.

Ji Xinxin didn’t want to mention it, but the frustration from the whole night was simmering in her chest, impossible to dispel. She definitely needed an audience to vent her irritation.

Ji Xinxin snorted coldly and began, "Before that guy showed up, I specifically told the person who introduced us that the entertainment industry is messy. Female celebrities who want fame all climb up by—the—unspoken rules. The circle is particularly filthy; you name it, it has it. That’s how I rose up."

Chuxia suddenly burst out, "You... you’re not like that, why would you say that about yourself?"

"How else can I scare off that so-called young master?" Ji Xinxin replied matter-of-factly.

Ling Chuxia looked at Ji Xinxin, her eyes widening slightly as she finally understood why she dressed so provocatively tonight. She gulped and asked, "Then what happened?"

Then... Just recalling that scene in her mind was enough for Ji Xinxin to feel crazed. She took a deep breath and said angrily, "Then, that guy, I don’t know how long he had been there, but he stood behind us the whole time and heard everything we said."

Ling Chuxia nodded, "Isn’t that what you wanted?"

"Yeah, but...!"

Ji Xinxin’s hands suddenly clutched the cushion tightly, fingers digging in, "But that guy, wouldn’t you know it, was... was that... my one-night stand from England!"

When Ji Xinxin yelled this, Ling Chuxia’s eyes widened in shock. She was stunned for a moment and then caught on, "You’re saying, the man you were set up with, was your first..."

Before Ling Chuxia could finish, Ji Xinxin yelled out loud, "Don’t remind me, it’s totally jinxed! Totally jinxed!"

Life is full of unexpected meetings, but this one, damned if it wasn’t messy.

Even though Ling Chuxia was feeling extremely down, when she heard this from Ji Xinxin, she couldn’t help but laugh.

"Are we even sisters? I’m this upset, and you’re laughing!" Ji Xinxin glared discontentedly at Ling Chuxia. Ling Chuxia quickly tried to control her expression, but couldn’t stop the corners of her lips from twitching.

Ji Xinxin spent the whole evening being tormented by that man’s teasing and knowing looks. She hated that she couldn’t just gouge his eyes out. Now that she voiced her feelings, instead of feeling relieved, she felt even more upset. Annoyed, she stood up, threw the cushion violently, and walked straight to the changing room. She had initially wanted to tell Ling Chuxia about Shi Che waiting downstairs but had completely forgotten about it.
